## Autochange (ACC2 with ACR Rack)

This probe changer requires one free RS-232 comm port.

You can modify the following registry entries in the Option section of the PC-DMIS Settings Editor:

- AutochangeClearance - This value specifies the clearance location directly in front of a given port of your Autochange probe changer. This clearance location value defines the distance in front of the port relative to the port center determined by the calibration. The probe moves to this location before moving to the port for the dropoff/pickup. The default value is 50.

Note that this value is used during the generation of motion for the change so that the value can be changed at any time without having to repeat the rack calibration.

Older Versions of PC-DMIS

- ToolChanger=1

- ToolChangerType=Autochange

- ToolChangerProtocol=COM2 9600 E,7,1

The probe changer protocol specified on the above line must match the settings for the probe changer controller. The defaults are shown above.

The GPIB protocol is not supported for the probe changer.
